Very laid back, friendly atmosphere. Loved the staff and they did a great job. Prices were good, and the groupon price was awesome and super eco-friendly. I will continue to go and even looking into doing some fundraising thru them!

From Our Editors

When The Smart Car Wash’s proprietors began their business, they did not simply want to clean cars, but also wanted to incorporate [green technology (http://www.thesmartcarwash.com/category/8348/enviroment.htm) into their business out of respect for the environment. A LEED-certified facility, the wash is powered entirely by electricity from off-site wind turbines and all of its water is recycled in a water recycling plant. Additionally, techs use biodegradable chemicals to rid vehicles of dirt and grime and clear off suds with a spot-free rinse before adding deluxe touches such as a triple foam polish and dash dressing. Along with performing washes seven days a week, the crew spruces up vehicles with detailing services including carpet cleaning, interior deodorizing, and revitalizing auto bodies with waxing and synthetic paint sealant.

When asking yourself “what to do in Salt Lake City,” events and concerts might leap to the forefront of your mind—this is, after all, the home of the world-famous Mormon Tabernacle Choir and the Utah Jazz. But if you’re interested in gaining some historical perspective, take a break from the regular Salt Lake City activities to go on a walk through the past. Hitting local museums like the Natural History Museum of Utah can be a great start, but nothing beats seeing the city’s best historical sites with your own eyes. Here are some of the most significant locations in the town’s history, organized by date:August 22, 1846The infamous Donner Party, a group of American pioneers who eventually resort to cannibalism, pass through the Great Salt Lake Desert. They travel through the area now known as Emigration Canyon, now a US National Historic Landmark whose trail remains open to hikers and regular bike tours.July 24, 1847When Mormon pioneers reach Emigration Canyon, Brigham Young sees the Salt Lake Valley for the first time and declares, “This is the right place.” Today, the This Is The Place Heritage Park marks the spot of his declaration with a white stone obelisk. The date is still celebrated as Pioneer Day throughout the state, and by local businesses such as Mini’s Cupcakes.July 28, 1847Brigham Young marks the site where the Salt Lake Temple will be built. The massive temple began construction in 1853 and would not be completed until 1893, but stands today as the centerpiece of the city’s Temple Square. No tour of Temple Square is complete without a stop to wander the temple grounds and admire its towering spires. (However, no tourist groups are allowed inside.) While in the area, visitors in search of other things to do in Salt Lake City can check out Brigham Young’s two residences, the historic Beehive House (built sometime between 1853-6) and the nearby Lion House (built 1856).December 28, 1894This date marks the dedication of the grand Salt Lake City and County Building, which became the seat of state government after Old City Hall. Designed to rival the Salt Lake Temple in architectural majesty, the building’s construction was marked by years of cost overruns, controversy, and architects quietly sobbing into their blueprints. The structure is located in Washington Square, which sometimes hosts a farmer’s market and live music events such as the Salt Lake City Jazz Festival. 1902Utah architect Carl M. Neuhausen finishes designing what will later become the Utah Governor’s Mansion, originally for Senator Thomas Kearns. Located in the South Temple Historic district, the house is known for the golden dome over its central stairwell, and is listed in the US National Register of Historic Places.October 9, 1916The State Capitol, a grand neoclassical building, is inaugurated after four years of construction. Built from Utah granite and boasting 52 Corinthian columns, the building remains an inspiring sight today. Capitol Hill overlooks downtown, so you can stop to dine at trendy local restaurants before feasting your eyes on the splendor of government.

In Salt Lake City, things to do abound, but there’s one activity that’s found hardly anywhere else: visiting Mormon heritage sites. When Brigham Young and his followers stumbled upon Salt Lake City in 1847, it wasn’t a city yet. It was an arid, desolate valley, and it was exactly what Young was looking for. He and his followers were Mormons, and they had been persecuted for their faith back east. They decided to leave and build a city of their own on inhospitable land so that no one would fight them for it. They had been traveling for more than a year when they reached what they called Salt Lake Valley. It felt right. Since then, the land has become Utah’s capital and a thriving modern metropolis. If you’re visiting the city or just looking for something new to do, below are three places where you can connect with history in different ways.Site #1: Beehive House67 S. Temple Built in 1854, this museum was Brigham Young’s home when he was head of the Mormon Church and governor of the Utah Territory. Originally built for Young and his family, this house gives visitors a unique chance to meet Mormonism’s second leader. Or at least to check out his furniture. The home-turned-museum is still decorated in period style, complete with intricately carved banisters and many of the furnishings Young really lived with. This site might be considered a hidden gem, too. The only part of its exterior that suggests something unusual within? The beehive sculpture on its roof.Site #2: Salt Lake Temple50 N. Temple There are no public tours of the inside of this temple—the largest LDS temple of all, by floor area—but everyone can enjoy its grounds and architecture. This imposing granite temple, with its six soaring spires, was inspired by Europe’s Renaissance-era cathedrals. Anyone who visits can sense it, especially if they keep their eyes peeled for epic extras. Not only is there a giant fountain on the grounds, there’s also a golden figure atop the temple’s tallest spire: a 14-foot-tall statue of the angel Moroni, held in place by a 14,000-pound counterweight.Site #3: This Is the Place Heritage Park2601 E. Sunnyside Ave. This park is built on the spot where Young said “This is the place!” and decided to settle down. Keep an eye out for its living-history village. A statue in this park commemorates Young’s decision, but the main attraction here is Deseret Village. It’s a living-history museum where visitors can experience life in a 19th-century Mormon settlement—and take selfies as they go. In the petting zoo, visitors can mingle with the barnyard animals farmers once worked with daily; another building from 1884 houses a pioneer hospital on the first floor. (Its second floor, unexpectedly, is a quilt museum!)
